James Bond is a fictional character conceived by Ian Fleming, a writer. He came up with the idea based on his life and the lifes of his close firends.
The name James Bond however came from a book, Birds of the West Indies, the book can be seen in the film Die Another Day as a tribute to Bonds origins.
Ian Fleming is of course an author, inspired by his World War II duties to create an impervious secret agent, by the dullest name he could find - James Bond. The name was found by using a book called Birds of the West Indies, a bible of Ian Flemings that was written by a man named James Bond. Ian Fleming wrote several books, most regarded as classics by fans. These novels and books of short stories include: Casino Royale, Live and Let Die, Moonraker, Diamonds are Forever, From Russia With Love, Dr. No, Goldfinger, For Your Eyes Only, Thunderball, The Spy Who Loved Me, On Her Majestys Secret Service, You Only Live Twice, The Man With The Golden Gun, and Octopussy and the Living Daylights. Other authors of the James Bond series of books are - Kingsley Amis, John Gardner and Raymond Benson.
A Vodka Martini is Bonds drink of choice. The Vodka Martini usually consists of 1.5 - 2 oz of Vodka and anything from a dash to 1oz Dry Vermouth. This is then topped off with an optional olive. Normally any drink containing a spirit would be stirred to avoid bruising it - however, Bond prefers shaking the drink as it allows the liquid to mix with the ice and therefore become colder.
James Bond marries Teresa Di Vicenzo in On Her Majestys Secret Service, but sadly Irma Bunt at the very end of the film kills her. There are a number references to her throughout the series mainly in Diamonds Are Forever, The Spy Who Loved Me, For Your Eyes Only, Licence To Kill and a subtle appearance in The World Is Not Enough.
These are acronyms for the films titles, as since some of them are fairly long, fans tend to shorten them and use the first letters of each of the titles words to make up the reference. So for example, For Your Eyes Only becomes FYEO, A View To A Kill becomes AVTAK and The World Is Not Enough becomes TWINE.
You can Contact James Bond Multimedia with your question, but please remember while every effort is made to reply to all messages, there are a few exceptions, or times where a reply will not be possible. If you have a James Bond related question, you can also post your question on the 007 Forums where James Bond fans from around the world will hopefully be able to answer your question.
This is perhaps the most important thing you can do to achieve success when asking for an autograph through the mail. By using a Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope (SASE) you are greatly increasing your chances of receiving an autograph. This is due to the fact that the celebrity probably receives lots of fan mail asking for autographs. If your request doesnt have a SASE then your request will probably be put into the bin or if you are lucky just put to the back of the pile.
Time is an issue, so no celebrity is going to sit down and read your 5-page novel stating what you liked about every film they ever starred in. Aim to keep your request to less than one side of A4.
International Reply Coupons are used to send autograph requests internationally. These coupons are included in the SASE, allowing them to be converted into the destination countries stamps, allowing the request to be sent back to its source.
Dont create a standard letter that you send to every celebrity and just fill-in the blanks. Include information that is relevant to that person. What was the character name they played in their last film? Why did you like them in that series? What was your favourite episode/film of theirs? Questions like this show you actually watch the film, series or listen to their songs and you actually are a fan of theirs.
Dont mention in your letter that you are an autograph collector, or you enjoy collecting autographs or words to this effect. There has been a large rise recently in the amount of signed items appearing on auction sites like Ebay. People are writing to celebrities, receiving autographs (sometimes fake) and then selling them at extortionate prices! There are still fraudsters like this around; it has made it harder for the honest fan to receive an autograph from their favourite star. If you dont mention you are a collector then the celebrity is more likely to send you their autograph. Of course the fraudsters are not going to mention this anyway, so its up to you to show youre genuine.
While this pointer is not a must, it can get you better results. If you send a photograph of your favourite star then it is going to be a photo you like and the size you like. If you ask the celebrity for a photo, then you might receive a small photo or one that you dont like that much. Be polite in your writing and ask the celebrity could they personally sign the enclosed photograph and that you would be very grateful. Finally, if you do not receive anything wait at least 6 months to a year before sending another request.
Where possible try to buy autographs from a UACC Registered Dealer. Remember that anyone can be a UACC Member, it only takes a small payment not so with a Registered Dealer that takes experience, reputation and knowledge of their field.
Please be careful when buying autographs from Internet auctions. Remember if it looks to good to be true it usually is! This is very true for autographs such as Sean Connery autographs sold for £5, this should be screaming suspect autograph! The same applies to auctions that seem to have large numbers of autographs from hard-to-get stars. ::
